BRIDGE OPENINGS

The file name is ENPOND. A program to determine bridge size required to handle flow from a given drainage area. The railroad embankment forms a dam thus creating a reservoir having a water level well above the structure, typically a multiple box, thus partially containing the inflow and increasing the capacity of the structure. Input describes the water shed, probable storm characteristics, and the reservoir. Output is the geometry of the box, or boxes, required.
